  Get rid of ugly startx helper script and start X on tty7/vt7

The startx helper script was used to get around some permission problems
which were caused by grml-runtty. As we switched to agetty, we also can
get rid of this ugly hack.

Furthermore we decided to start X on tty7/vt7 (if the bootoption startx
is given) as tty6 "is especially reserved for auto-spawned gettys":

 This is done in order to ensure that there's always a way to get a text
 login, even if due to fast user switching X took possession of more
 than 5 VTs.

  Fix the amixer scontrols parser in config_mixer

The internal field seperator (IFS) got messed up in commit# 1043bc00e.
While at it, fixed all IFS variables to make it more readable and to
prevent breakage by (automatic) indentation.

This is not (yet) POSIX though, but we are in zsh anyway.

Closes grml/grml#40
